CMT ORANGE 10 x 24T Ripping Blade

The CMT Industrial Thin Kerf Design blade is an excellent choice for saws that are a bit underpowered, as its thin kerf makes it ideal for such applications. Despite its thin profile, this tool delivers exceptional performance, offering an excellent price-to-quality ratio.

The blade's laser-cut, heavy-duty plate is hardened to a Rockwell hardness of 46-48, ensuring great resistance and durability. The plate features expansion slots that help reduce noise and an anti-vibration design for a smooth cutting experience.

The teeth of this blade are made of micrograin carbide, which guarantees long-lasting cutting performance and delivers a smooth finish on wood and wood products. These teeth are bonded to the blade body through a special trimetallic (copper-silver-copper) brazing process, ensuring longer cutting life and enhanced resistance.

The blade comes packaged in a unique CMT plastic case, adding to its overall convenience and protection.

CMT's Industrial Thin Kerf Design is particularly well-suited for ripping applications, as the reduced material removal puts less strain on the blade and the saw. This translates into lower heat buildup during the cut, allowing for more cuts between resharpening and extending the overall life of the tools.

The blade features a combination of one flat-top tooth followed by a pair of 15-degree alternating top bevel teeth, which provides the finest micrograin carbide teeth available. Additionally, the blade includes other great ITK features, such as an Anti-Kickback Design, Tri-Metal Brazing, Precision Balancing, Laser-Cut Arbors, and strategically positioned Expansion Slots and Sound Dampening Channels.

The ITK blades also come with CMT's unique laser-marked safety instructions and comprehensive, illustrated resharpening information, ensuring a safe and informed user experience.

This CMT Industrial Thin Kerf Design blade is ideal for fast rip cuts on soft and hardwood, thanks to its thin kerf design. It can be used on a variety of saws, including radial arm saws, miter saws, and table saws, and performs well on plywood as well.

The blade's key specifications are as follows: 0.102 kerf thickness, 0.071 plate thickness, 10-degree Hook Angle, and an alternate teeth grind.
